Midfielder Ruler

Chapter 107: What is supposed to come will come sooner or later.

"Oh-My-God! Cristiano Ronaldo scored his fourteenth goal in the Champions League this season, officially tying José Altafini, Leo Messi and teammate Don in the Champions League single season. The record for the most goals! Don’t forget! Cristiano Ronaldo’s Champions League journey is not over! Real Madrid, which leads Bayern Munich with a total score of 4:0, will definitely advance to the Champions League final hosted at the Stadium of Light in Lisbon, Portugal this season! And... There are still more than fifty minutes left before the end of this game..."

Cristiano Ronaldo scored the ball into the goal guarded by Neuer. Francesco, the commentator of the Portuguese National Sports TV, shouted loudly and witty words, like a machine gun that kept clicking, impacting the fans in front of the TV. of the auditory nerve.

At this moment, no Portuguese could suppress the excitement in their hearts.

The same is true for the Real Madrid fans in the stands. They know what Cristiano Ronaldo's goal means. It means that Real Madrid's promotion to the Champions League final this season is a certainty!

The total score is 4:0, which means that if Bayern wants to reverse the situation and advance, they must score five goals in a row in the remaining game time, and they cannot concede any more goals, otherwise everything will be in vain.

After celebrating, Cristiano Ronaldo took the initiative to find Tang Zheng, opened his arms, hugged Tang Zheng and joked: "Sorry, I think your Champions League single-season scoring record is going to be broken by me."

"Really?" Tang Zheng gave Cristiano Ronaldo a roll of his eyes, and then raised a nice curve at the corner of his mouth: "Then I will never pass the ball to you again, let's see how you break it, hehe~"

"Oh! Brother, you can't do this!" Cristiano Ronaldo, who had a hint of despair, put his arm around Tang Zheng's shoulders and said.

"Do you realize your mistake?" Tang Zheng raised his head and looked at Cristiano Ronaldo playfully.

"I know I was wrong."

While Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo were joking and walking back, the live director's close-up shot showed the entire Allianz Arena.

The stands where the Bayern fans were in were in a gloomy mood, but the Real Madrid fans were the only ones cheering and dancing.

It can even be seen from the broadcast that some disappointed Bayern fans chose to leave early. Obviously, they were extremely dissatisfied with the home team falling behind by three goals before half-time.

Central 5 commentator He Wei shook his head: "Bayern is behind Real Madrid 0:3 at home and 0:4 on aggregate. It basically means that their Champions League journey this season is over. I can understand those disappointed Bayern fans."

Guardiola, who was in the command area of ​​the home team coach, was not in a better mood.

His face was ashen.

If there was any hope of reversing a 0:2 deficit and advancing to the finals, then there is no hope now.

Scoring five goals in a row without conceding a goal is unprecedented in the entire world of football.

The Bayern players who caused the current situation were stunned. Goalkeeper Neuer put his hands on his hips and had mixed emotions. He really did not expect to defend all Tang Zheng's shots, but did not block Tang Zheng's assists.

Of the three goals conceded, two were direct assists from Tang Zheng and the other was a cover. This means that all three goals conceded were related to Tang Zheng.

Thinking of this, Noelle looked up at Tang Zheng's back as he walked away, and shook his head.

This evil star... leaving the Bundesliga will not make him feel better.

Superstars such as Robben, Ribery, Bastian Schweinsteiger, and Lahm are lackluster. As Real Madrid players, their backgrounds are very qualified.

At the same time, Ancelotti, who has extensive coaching experience, did not get carried away. He specifically stopped Xavi Alonso and explained to him some game tactics for the remainder of the first half.

A 3:0 lead as a guest basically means that there will be no surprises in the game, but the premise is that you don't take the initiative to kill.

Unlike Bayern, Real Madrid has to be distracted from the domestic league after finishing the Champions League. After all, the league situation still gives Real Madrid a glimmer of hope of reversing the championship.

As a professional coach, as long as there is hope, we must fight hard.

Because the Champions League final was held one week after the end of the 2013-2014 La Liga season, there was sufficient rest time to prepare for the final Champions League final.

Now that we have basically got a spot in the finals, there is reason to allocate physical fitness more reasonably.

※※※

Although Bayern was basically eliminated by Real Madrid, head coach Guardiola did not admit defeat, or he was unwilling to accept the current score.

Even if we lose, we can't lose 0:3 at home!

Guardiola has excellent results in his career and coaching career, and he does not want to end the Champions League with such poor results in his first season at Bayern.

You must know that he coached Barcelona and lost 0:7 home and away to Dortmund in the Champions League semi-finals last season. Therefore, sitting at the Allianz Arena at home cannot end like this. He must score and save face!

Of course, you can’t rush to save face.

After Guardiola cleared his thoughts, he hooked his fingers at Bastian Schweinsteiger and motioned for him to come to the sidelines.

The Bayern fans sitting in front of the TV felt somewhat relieved to see this scene. In their hearts, as long as coach Guardiola did not give up, there was still hope for the game.

When the game restarted, Bayern's offense was faster than before the goal was conceded. However, Real Madrid coach Ancelotti asked the team to focus on defense in view of the big lead. After all, when he was coaching AC Milan, he encountered Liverpool after nine minutes. Having scored three goals in a row, Bayern Munich is not a weak team and is at home, so there cannot be any relaxation.

Real Madrid, which was leading by three goals, retreated to half-time defense, including Cristiano Ronaldo, who actively participated in the defense. However, Bayern was obviously affected by the three-goal deficit and had a great impact on the offense until the British referee Webber blew the whistle to end the first half. The whistle score remained unchanged.

0:3

The home team goes first and the away team goes last.

The game atmosphere at the Allianz Arena has now been reduced to the lowest level. Except for the Real Madrid fans who came from afar and the die-hard Bayern fans in the South Stand, there was basically no sound from other stands.

Obviously, these Bayern fans have lost confidence in the home team's reversal and advancement to this season's Champions League final.

During the halftime break, the TV station with the rights to broadcast the UEFA Champions League in the 2013-2014 season reviewed and analyzed the first half.

Commentators on various TV stations have different opinions, but one thing is clear, that is, Bayern Munich will completely miss the Champions League final this season.

The total score is 0:4. If you want to advance, you must score five goals in a row without conceding a goal.

The forty-five minutes of the second half seemed like plenty of time, but in fact it was very difficult given the current mental state of the Bayern players.

In the blink of an eye, fifteen minutes of halftime passed, and players from both sides returned to the court.

After changing sides and fighting again, neither side made any substitutions and continued to fight according to the starting eleven in the first half.

German Sky commentator Marcel Leif was a little puzzled: "It's normal for Real Madrid not to make substitutions. They lead with a total score of four goals. As long as they don't take the initiative to make mistakes, it will be difficult for Bayern Munich to score. It's fundamental not to make mistakes." One of the conditions is to keep the existing players intact, but if Josep Guardiola stands still, will it be too much? Or... expect the starting eleven to realize their shame and then be brave?"

To be honest, Marcel Leif does not see the current Bayern players.

The basis is very simple, that is, Bayern's starting eleven were numb after losing to Tang Zheng, and they didn't feel anything.

"Beep~"

With the whistle of referee Weber, the second half of the second leg of the 2013-2014 Champions League semifinals between Bayern and Real Madrid at home was officially announced.

Bayern, which was lagging behind by a big score, did not show a desperate attitude and still followed the same steps as in the first half.

In this regard, Real Madrid, who is leading, has a lot to worry about.

Of course, Tang Zheng is very focused on the game. He knows what his responsibilities are, and many times he even sacrifices himself for the sake of the team.

It's like Tang Zheng has always been a defensive midfielder in key games. He is dedicated in defense and can be seen in offense many times.

Real Madrid's big lead in this game is directly related to Tang Zheng.

Therefore, before the game started, the on-site director first consciously targeted Tang Zheng, and then showed the score displayed on the big screen, which was meaningful.

Anyone with any sense knows that Bayern, which was sitting at the Allianz Arena and trailing by three goals at halftime, was definitely the work of ‘Bayern’s nemesis’.

Although there are nearly 90% Bayern fans at the Allianz Arena, the home atmosphere has been reduced to the lowest level. Only the South Stand issued a unified chant to cheer for the lagging Bayern.

But this level of momentum is far from enough for the huge Allianz Arena, and there is absolutely no fanatical atmosphere that should be expected in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals.

※※※

As a guest, Real Madrid had a three-goal lead and didn't have much desire to attack, focusing on control.

Bayern was three goals behind but had no choice but to be in a sluggish overall state. There were enough people to attack, but the thunder was loud and the rain was small.

The game time passed quickly under this light and pleasant rhythm, and ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

At the eleventh minute of the second half, Bayern made the first substitution adjustment of the game. However, this substitution was not to reduce defensive players and increase offensive players. Instead, it was like a substitution adjustment made when leading by a big score.

Javi Martinez replaced Mandzukic who was not performing well.

Many commentators said they couldn't understand Guardiola's substitution adjustments.

However, Ancelotti understood that Guardiola's substitutions made Bayern's frontcourt attack more pure, playing a forwardless formation, which is the same tactics that won the Champions League twice in three years when coaching Barcelona.

Judging from the initial effect of Javi Martinez's appearance, it is still good. However, as the game time passes and Real Madrid shrinks its defense, Bayern's offense has been unable to find a good way, and the Bayern fans in the stands are also moving at a speed visible to the naked eye. is falling.

Obviously, they didn't intend to watch the whole game.

After several consecutive waves of attacks with no results, Schweinsteiger was not in a hurry to pass the ball out. Instead, he passed the ball near the midfield, hoping to attract Real Madrid's forward line and midfield line to penetrate higher.

However, after many consecutive passes without success, Schweinsteiger and Boateng passed the ball to Javi Martinez and became careless.

Just when Boateng relaxed his vigilance, Benzema and Di Maria suddenly stepped forward.

Boateng's heart thumped, and he subconsciously stretched out his foot to poke the ball, but Di Maria's calf swing was faster and he kicked the ball first.

Isco, who was pressing forward appropriately, was waiting just in time. Without stopping, he pushed the ball directly to Benzema who was pulling to the right.

Boateng made a mistake and pounced on Benzema. Benzema also chose not to stop the ball. The arch of his right foot pushed the ball towards Di Maria's path.

According to normal development, Di Maria, who has the advantage of speed, can quickly beat Dante to catch the ball, but goalkeeper Neuer was already on guard and attacked.

I don’t know if it was interfered by Di Maria’s forward penetration, but Neuer made a small mistake in his clearance.

It's not that he kicked the ball directly to Di Maria and bounced towards the goal, but the kick was flawed and the football flew from the front of the penalty area to the center arc with a weird parabola.

The on-site director switched the camera, and a burst of exclamations suddenly sounded above the Allianz Arena: "Oh, oh, oh -"

Central 5 commentator He Wei looked at Tang Zheng appearing on the broadcast screen, subconsciously stood up from the commentary table, and shouted: "Tang Zheng——!"

Suddenly, goalkeeper Neuer, who missed the ball, was startled and ran back without looking back.

Tang Zheng looked at the trajectory of the falling football, took a step forward with his right foot, and stepped on the grass. His body's center of gravity naturally tended to the left side of his body. Then he looked at the football and picked up his left foot, swinging from back to forward.

Javi Martinez jumped on the spot, but did not touch the football. The football flew flat and fast towards the goal.

Goalkeeper Neuer glanced at the football in the air. He suddenly stopped at the line of the penalty area, slowly raised his head, stared at the football in mid-air, then closed his eyes and said secretly in his heart: "It will come sooner or later. will come."

"——Don!"

German Sky commentator Marcel Leif's voice suddenly rose an octave higher.

Behind the goal is the area where die-hard Bayern fans live, which is the difficult stand.

They who had been standing in front of the seats seemed to have been pushed hard in front of them, and suddenly fell backward and sat on the seats.

"Ouch-ouch——"

Real Madrid fans at the other end of the pitch raised their arms and let out huge cheers.

Half a second later, the football rubbed the lower edge of the crossbar and hit the snow-white net until the potential energy ended and fell to the ground.

At the same time, Tang Zheng turned his back and raised his arms into fists, with only two index fingers exposed.

The Bayern players lowered their noble heads one after another, while the die-hard Bayern fans in the South Stand also shook their heads and sighed.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Tang Zheng helped Real Madrid expand the score to 4:0, and the total score became 5:0.

Reversal to advance?

nonexistent!

The commentator from Central 5 kept his momentum and shouted: "What an incredible game! The game only entered one hour, and Tang Zheng, 'Bayern's nemesis', took advantage of an opportunity that was not a chance to score! Real Madrid, who were visiting as a guest, led Bayern by four goals. ! The total score is five goals ahead!"

Marcel Leif shook his head and said: "Don didn't score in the two rounds against Bayern, but what should come will come sooner or later. Bayern Munich and Manuel Neuer can't hide! Don Use his seventeenth goal against Bayern Munich to help Real Madrid completely secure their place in this season's Champions League final!"

The scoreboard became 0:4, and Guardiola kept shaking his head.

Although I don't want to accept this reality, the reality is so cruel that I have to accept it.
